Why is it that January seems like the longest month? I have tried to be diligent in blogging, but between this being the busiest time at work, maintaining a home, remembering to feed all of the animals, trying to sleep in the middle of the wilderness, and attempt a chance to see my family, when I get still I usually crash. I started organizing pictures, I go to my website that I have had since 2007 only to see that they are discontinuing the service. Every blog post I have written, and over 45,000 photos I had on that site. For the last week and a half that is all I have been doing with every free second that I have trying to put everything somewhere secure before I lose it all. Do y'all know what happened at the beginning of the month? Bailey moved away. Like, packed all of their shit and moved to Mississippi. The worst of all of the states. I threw stuff, I yelled, I cried, and the night before she left I had a complete panic attack. But she, Levi, and Christian made it safely, they're settled, and although I am still bitter, it will be okay. Levi is like....I am living WHERE now? Lily, of course, is still a delight. I didn't get a chance to take off a day during Christmas break to hang out with her, so I told her that her next off week in February, to pick a day, and we can do whatever she wants. She goes, "Uh, can't you just give me money instead?" And then she charged me $4 to take this picture. This reminds me so much of her. The Year started off well. To be as freezing as it was on Christmas, New Year was toasty. We ate junk food and set off fireworks. There was this one week this month. Y'all. 4/5 drivers were God-awful, 2 didn't make it, and with Bailey leaving, I was a wreck. Jared was like, "pack your crocs, we're going to the beach!" I know all pics of the ocean look the same, but the sounds, the smells, even the tastes...breathtaking. Y'all know that I don't like birds. Anything with wings is a no. I saw the flocks and flocks of seagulls when I got there. I was eyeballing them. We were walking by and I said "no one make eye contact!" And then The Child.... "I was protecting you!" LOL My Tik Tok's for the month :) Being Romantic in the Woods That Time the I Fell Through the Porch In Which I Blame the Dog We got the Escape back! On a Tuesday. Friday, it was back in the shop. A wheel bearing went out. The Child is a licensed driver! One of the student drivers, age 44, made my week. This was only LOL because of her Southeast Asian accent... "Are you married?" Me: yes "Oh wow. You look single". And THEN! "Are your parent alive?" Me: my mom is "Oh wow. She must be very old" I said you and I are the same age! But it turns out she was the 3rd youngest of 13 children and her parents are in their 90's. The following day she asked were the kids married, did they live at home, etc. I said Thomas went to LSU and The Child was still at home. She said "oh no, it must be so lonely to sleep in the bed by yourself" I told her I didn't, that JARED slept next to me. "Oh yeah...I forgot". Like this woman absolutely could not believe that I was married. That's about all I have for now. Just a bunch of random pictures. I leave you with Lily. She stayed the night with my mother, and apparently almost starved to death. Translation, I AM HUNGRY, BUT THERE IS NOTHING TO EAT!
